Abstract
During 2009-2016, Russian secondary school students are required to pass the Unified State Exam (EGE). Their parents often become clients of private tutors or tutoring centers. These centers have some differences in their organisational structure: they can be as partnership of teachers-tutors or have a more centralized structure with administrative body. The article focuses on differences in the providing of guidability in different types of semi-legal educational structures. We investigated several centres providing services in the field of teaching foreign languages and identified the effective retention strategies of private teachers.
